My Project

Although the COVID pandemic has "ended", the effects of it are still very present in our classrooms today. One of the biggest changes since COVID-19 is that we have been using technology daily to enrich learning. Because of this, students need headphones and mice for their computers. In addition, I have also requested books that we will use as SEL and holiday read-alouds to promote literacy and make connections. Next, I ordered snacks for students who often do not have snacks at school. I believe that students need their basic needs met before they can learn. one of those basic needs being food. Finally, I am requesting office supplies that we use daily in our classroom to make the day run smoothly.
